Borgmeyer was president of the Saint Charles Chamber of Commerce, County Council of Chambers and Saint Charles Cable TV and Tourism Commissions.

Mayoral term
[edit]In an interview with KMOV News, Borgmeyer said that he wanted to take a pro-business stance and curb crime during his time as mayor of St. Charles. Borgmeyer also believes that the police force is currently understaffed, saying "As far as I'm concerned we're understaffed police wise I'd like to see the police force expanded They're coming up for contract negotiations, that's an important part of it."[3]
Borgmeyer pushed for the repeal of a controversial St. Charles liquor law that required businesses on North Main Street to make at least 50% of their revenues come from food and not liquor. He says that the requirement does not make the area safer but rather could force some places to close as a result. Borgmeyer also believes that the food requirement is keeping new businesses from coming to North Main. He says that better lighting and more policing have made North Main safer, not the ordinance.[4]
